conditions on one railroad may be entirely
different to those of another. The law does
not, IN terms nor by implication, demand that
the rates adopted on one division of rail-
road shall be the maximum charges on an
other division of the same railroad. The cir
cumstances and conditions of the tariff ON
different divisions of a railroad may be dis
similar, and require rates based on different
scales. The rates charged from st. Paul to
Chicago on the river division are affected by
water competition which does not affect the
interior divisions and demand lesser rates per
ton per mile than are reasonable on divisions
where such water competition does not exist
Mr.. Reyes produced figures to show
that the rates of the Milwaukee road
over the same distance were in favor of
Iowa as against Minnesota. The rate
on wheat from Minneapolis to Chicago,
he said, was ~ cents, and from North
field to st. Paul 8 cents, eleven times
greater per ton per mile.
MIR. Burlingame said the tariffs were
in effect prOhibitory and shut them COM
pletely out of st. Paul and Duluth, and
compelled them to trade with Chicago,
because the road charges eight to ten
times as much from the complaining
towns to st. Paul and Minneapolis than
to Chicago.
Mr.. Perkins was of the opinion that
water competition was the same as rail-
road competition, and if the latter ey-
listed the roads might shut them out OF
st. Paul in the same manner.
The position of these gentlemen
seemed to be directly in opposition to
that of the railroads, that circumstances
and conditions alter cases over different
roads and the several divisions of the
same road regarding rates. They argued
that the same rate over one division
might be applied to any other division
of the same road. The commissioners
have not yet made decision.

THE DAKOTA LINES
The Railroad Commission En-
gagged in Regulating Them.


Special to the Globe.
BISMARCK, OAK, June 2S.-The Da-
kota railroad commission metin the cap
itol yesterday afternoon. Present,
Chairmun Griggs, Abe Boynton, n. G.
Smith and Secretary Quinn. Among
the important questions considered was
that of the construction of ~" be-
tween the Chicago, Milwaukee & st.
Paul roads at Aberdeen and the con-
StructiOn of a new depot at that point
by the Chicago, Milwaukee 81 St. Paul
road. The farmers in the vicinity of
Ipswich and through the entire sur
rounding country have asked for ''Y'
between the Milwaukee and the Mani
toba roads, in order that they have the
advantage of competition for the
transportation of their grain. The
transportation commission requested the
officials of the Milwaukee road to take
the desired action, and received from
General Manager Roswell Miller the in
formation that the company did not
have the right of way for ''Y" at that
point. Mr.. Miller says in letter that
he learns that the proposed ''Y" is a
scheme on the part of certain interested
parties to take the grain from the Mil
waukee road for shipment over the
Northwestern. and asks the commits
SlOn6rS IL Jney propose TO cOmpel his
road to purchase land for this purpose.
The matter involves a deli
cate question, and the commits
sioners will make a thorough inveS-
tigation of the case before taking
definite action. Another complaint was
received from citizens of Aberdeen set
ting forth that the depot OF the Milwau-
kee road was inadequate to the needs of
the city and not kept in fit condition
for the accomodationx of the public.
During their recent visit to Aberdeen
the board investigated this matter, and
at their meeting yesterday addressed
letter to Mr.. Miller confirming the
statements in the petition and request
ing the company to make the needed
improvements at once. WATERFOWL
came to the front with another request
asking the commission to take steps to-
wards securing for that city transfer
tracks between the railroads doing bus
mess, or about to do business at that
point. The roads are the Minneapolis
d st. Louis, the Chicago & Northwest
ern, Burlington, Cedar Rapids & North
ern and the st. Paul, Minneapolis ~
Manitoba. The board will take this
matter into consideration and act upon
if at once

CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.
The Papers of Candidates to be
Marked Up in Washington.

+ New YORK, June 2S.-The special
committee consisting of Henry F. DON
ovan, of the Chicago postoffice, John r.
Mason, of the New York custom house,
and Edward S. Post, of the New York
postoffice, appointed by President
Cleveland last week during the confer
ence in Washington of local civil ser
vice officers from the leading cities to
suggest notifications in the civil SER
vice rules, finished its work in New
York to-day. 1t was decided not to
recommend any change in the form of
application by candidates, but to recon-
mend that hereafter all examination
papers be marked up in Washington.
That the marking be done by board
of fifteen members made up as follows:
Seven chosen from the departments of
the government in Washington, one
each from the custom houses and post
offices of New York and Boston. one
from the Philadelphia custom house,
and one each from the postoffices of
Baltimore, st. Louis and Chicago. The
object in view in having all examine
ton papers marked by this central
board is to do away with all opportunity
for suspicion of unfairneSS, such as
obtains in certain localities under the
present local board system and which
tends to neutralize the objects sought
for under the civil service law.

A THRUST AT DIR. DANA,

To the Editor of the Globe.
''France does not know what the Cos
pei IS, and only remembers with hatred
the domineering of the Roman priest
hood"
The GLOBES report of Dr.. Dana's
Sunday Sermon.
Permit me to remark anent the above
that DR.. Dana does not know what
France is, nor does he know what the
Roman priesthood is. France learned
the gospel in its purity from the 'sRo-
man. priesthood before the land which
DR.. Dana's ancestors claimed as moth
erland, had found place in the cata-
lOgue of civilized nations. France,
thanks to the labors of the ''Roman''
priesthood, preserved the gospel and
brought it to the knowledge of barbara
GUS tribes, when ratioDaliStic proteStatiOn
i'll England, Germany and America was
doing its utmost to destroy Christianity
by making it ridiculous. France, de-
spite the efforts of the haterS of Christi
anity and the wrong deings of compare
lively few Frenchmen, has more Christi
anity to-day than any other nation I'M
der the sun. If DR.. Dana is correctly
reported, he has illuminated France
and the Catholic priesthood.
What does DR.. Dana know of the
state OF religion Ill France? What have
been his opportunities for studying the
customs of the country. A fitting trip
through the land is certainly not
enough to enable one to speak. as Sir
Oracle on such matters. | doubt very
seriously whether the good doctor can
carry on conversation in the French
tongue.
If the assertions which I have taken
from the GLOBES report had been made
by travelling mountebank, a Justin
Fulton, or any other pope hater, they
might be passed over in silence; but
coming from Dr.. Dana, man who
ought to know better, they require to
be denied. If the doctor persists in
this course he is sure to forfeit the re-
spect of many who have heretofore been
disposed to be his friends.

THE PARK QUESTION.

We are surprised that such an intell;-
gent body of men as the members of the
park commission should have chung SO
tenaciously to the idea of enlarging
Central park, rather than favor the es-
tablishment in the outskirts of the city
of public park that would be worthy
of the name.
Small parks, or rather, open squares,
scattered through the city are all very
well in their way, but they don't go far
enough. They are breathing spots and
nothing else. No one would think of
going to them for days recreation
amid the beauties of nature, and few
would favor the expenditures of large
sums Of money for their ornamentation.
The enlargement of Central park, be-
sides absorbing all of the money availa-
BILE for park purposes, would really
amount to very little. Property in the
vicinity of the park is so valuable that
but little of it could be procured, and
that little would not add materially to
the parks area.
What the city rea lily needs is an ex-
tenSive tract of land convenient Of ac-
cess by boat, drive way, trans or cars
which would be veritable section of the
country, which would possess varied
natural features and yet which art
might render even more pleasing to the
eye. We should have park, which
like Fairmount park in Philadelphia.
Druid Hill in Baltimore, Central park
III New York, or Golden Gate park in
San Francisco, would be perpetual
JOY and everlasting means of refresh
ment to the people. 1t should be Oh no
niggardly scale, but should be so extern
sive that it would be forever a source of
pride and enjoyment. And it should be
established now before property, as it
inevitably must, becomes so dear that
park on anything like an extended scale
will be out of the question.
Not only should we have it at once.
but both cities should unite in its estab-
lishment. By placing it somewhere in
the midway district it would be of adj
vantage to both. Each could take an
equal pride i'll it, and through co-opera-
ton far better results could be attained,
both in locating and maintaining it, than
if either acted alone. Thus far, though
1t is needless to say the GLOBE has no
interest in any especial location, the
proposition for the city to provide $50
acres near AIinnehaha upon which
Soldiers home will be placed seems to
be the best suggestion. But that extent
of land is entirely insufficient for
the ideal park which the cities should
OWN in common. 1t should be 600 acres
i'm extent at the very least.
The only way to secure park of
those dimensions is for st. Paul and
Minneapolis to act tremendously and
together. To this end we suggest con-
Gerence between the park commission
CTS of the Twin Cities. No harm and
perpetual good may come from such
meeting.

INDIANAPOLIS, June 2S.-Indianapolis

ball playing to-day as might be expected
from lot of Second-claSS amateurs.
Several members of the team were not
in condition to play for reasons best
known to themselves. Morrison was
put in to pitch, and was easily batted
out of the box, giving way to a local
player named SOwderS, who was also
hit hard when he put the ball over the
plate. Both pitchers were very wild
giving eleven men bases on called balls.

SPARKS NOT TO BLAME.

In view of the feeling which seems
to exist still in some sections against
Land Commissioner SPARKS, it may be
well to repeat the statement recently
made by the GLOBES Washington cor
respondent.
From his investigations it appears
that nearly all of the obnoxious orders
of Commissioner SPARKs, those Which
really involved injustice to the people
affected, were prepared by: one of his
subordinate law clerks whose business
it is to look into disputed land cases.
In the ordinary course of departmental
business, these decisions were laid be-
fore the commissioner and by him
signed. 1t would obviously be impossi-
Die for any one man himself to examine
The thousands of controversies which
The department is expected to decide.
Not only have these decisions been
prepared by clerk, but by a Republic
ian clerk, one who having for years held
ais position naturally performs his work
as he has always been accustomed, ac
;ording to Republican ideas and Repub-
lican policy. Had clean sweep been
made of all the Republicans holding Of
fee this individual would have gone
with the rest. A competent Democrat,
in entire harmony with the administra-
tons policy, would have been installed
in his place, and cause for complaint, in
all probability, would not have been
given.
Nothing but detriment to the coun-
try's interests accrues from the reten-
lion of these relics of past administra-
lions, and every day there is some evil
fienee of Secretary WHIrNEY's wisdom
in declaring that change throughout is
the one thing needful.

Chips From the Ties.

There is good deal of talk about the future
building operations of the Milwaukee, Lake
Shore d. Western road. 1t is currently re-
ported that the road will be extended soon
from Oconto to Marinette. The right of way
has been surveyed from Oconto to the latter
place. In regard to this the New London
Times says: 1T is not improbable that the
corps of engineers which the Milwaukee,
Lake Shore d Western Railroad company
started into the woods at Rineland will come
out at st. Paul instead of Hurley. The 500
road is now very liable to have fed-hot
business competitor all the way from ST.
Paul to the $780, and soon.''
The Milwaukee d st. Paul having fur
nished its patrons with guide to whist and
the Burlington q Northern having furnished
its patrons with pack of cards, it will be in
order for Mr.. Hanley, of the Minnesota d
Northwestern to furnish those who travel on
his road with pocket flask.
The round trip rate to St Louis to the G.
A. II. encampment next September has been
fixed at $3.50.

western, has gone down the road on

EXTRA TRANSFER CHARGES
j. L. Avery, Of Minneapolis, Conn
plains Against the Manitoba.

plains Against the Manitoba.
j. L. Avery, a Minneapolis commits
sion merchant, complains to the rail
road commission that the Manitoba
road, at Minneapolis, charges him from
81 to $3.50 transfer charges per car,
when the company's own cars are used
over its own tracks, for shipments con-
signed to him. He claims that no other
company i'll Minneapolis does the same
thing. General Manager Marvel, of
the Manitoba, made answer before the
commission yesterday afternoon. He
says the charges referred to are Occa-
stoned by the fact that shipments are
generally made to Mr.. Avery, Mime
apolis, designating no particular place
in the city as their ultimate termina-
ton. Consequently extra work is neces-
STATED, the cars being dropped off at
Minneapolis and Sidetracked until Mr..
Avery informs the company where he
extra charges are made upon the ele-
vatorS. Mr.. Manvel's answer to this
is that the cars can be run direct to the
elevators without any additional trou-
BILE, as it is known by the conSignmentS
Just where the cars are required to be
taken. MIR. Avery also claims that the
Manitoba company will not accOmmO-
date him by allowing its cars to be used
over the tracks of other companies.
Mr.. Manvel's answer to this is that if
the company was to do what Mr.. Avery
desires its cars would soon be scattered
all over the East, and the Manitoba
needs all the cars it has for its own bust
ness. 1t is expected that the wheat crop
along the Manitoba road this year will
amount to about 4O,OOO,0OOO bushels, so
all the cars of the Manitoba are needed
to accommodate the farmers of the
Northwest, as it will probably be neces-
sary to carry off this great bulk of wheat
in about sixty days. The hearing was
continued to give Mr.. Avery an oppor-
tunity to furnish proof that no other
road in Minneapolis made the extra
charye referred tn

DULUTH, MIMI, June 2S.-Intelli-
gence has been received here that the
Minnesota d Northwestern railway has
three large parties of surveyors working
between st. Paul and Duluth, and
enough is learned to justify the state
ment that the route will be selected and
piling, heavy grading and other work
commenced this fall as soon as the sur
vey is complete. The following is part
of the Instructions delivered to the
chief engineer of each party:
Above all things push your surveys with
the greatest possible speed. Bear i'll mind
that the very best road is what the company
requires of you, and while the expense of
construction will enter into consideration of
the comparative merits of the different lines
which may be submitted, the primary object
which is To govern your laborS, is locating
the best line without regard to cost.

to whether the national Legislators
should not have been called together
early in the fall to perform the work
they then neglected.
But when they do come together again
the country will permit no Sinking. 1t
Is unbusiness like to tax people to a
greater extent than is necessary to meet
the expenses of the government, and it
is unjust to tax all of them for the bene-
fit of the few. The next congress will
discover that it is expected to '''tend
strictly to its knittin'" and not shilly-
shally along in idlenesS and tiresome
debate.
Members who do not observe the
country's wishes in this direction will
be very likely to discover that their
services can be dispensed with, and it
is gratifying indication of more ener-
getic and more intelligent work in the
next congress that many of them are
beginning already to be disturbed over
this fact.
